Microsoft account setup for Passkey
Hello
How can I save Passkey for my personal and business Microsoft accounts? For my personal account I went to https://account.live.com/proofs/manage/additional then Add then selected Windows device. It asked for my Windows Hello PIN code and that was it. I didn't get any prompt from 1Password. I tried both in Firefox and Edge.
Addon versions
FF: 1Password im Browser 2.12.1 21200101, im Kanal BETA
Edge: 1Password im Browser 2.12.0 21200003, im Kanal BETA

Because Safari is not supported at the moment.

I was having the same issue of only getting the 3 options while using Safari. I logged in using Firefox and that gave me the 4th option to use a USB key. 1Password saved it as a passkey.

I followed these instructions, using Brave browser on my Mac running Sonoma, and they worked:
On that page, click "(+) Add a new way to sign in or verify", then "Use a security key".
Follow along as if you were adding a USB security key, and 1Password will offer to save a passkey for you.
Now, when I go to my main 1P.app > Skype, it says [You can now use a Passkey] and there is a "button" for [Use Passkey]. When I click on [Use Passkey], it takes me to Brave browser and offers to log me in exactly the same way it did before I created a Passkey.
Something seems amiss here. When I go to Skype, should I not see a [Passkey} button to click on? - Former Member
Same here, no option to use a security key.

Same here, no "Use a security key" is not listed as an option in Safari. However on Chrome the additional options are available.

Same here, any ideas how to activate a Passkey on MS? Is it maybe only enabled in the US?
- Former Member
yup, same issue for me as well. "Use a security key" is not listed as an option.
I only see these three options:- Use an app
- Email a code
- Text a code
Any ideas?

I have the same issue with trying to set up a passkey as login to microsoft. The only options available are the same as superandrew. I am using an iMac with Safari Version 16.6 installed.
It would be great if someone could assist. Thanks. - superandrewOccasional Contributor
